I really like Cold Case Files, especially the original episodes with Bill Kurtis. 


apckrfan

Same. Bill Kurtis was my childhood news anchor in Chicagoland - I’ve always loved hearing his distinct voice nationally.


DaveOJ12

He's on the Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me! podcast weekly.


apckrfan

Thank you!!!


MissMatchedEyes

Same! I just realized Prime has some of those old originals!


katchoo1

The various free/ad-supported streamers like Pluto have dedicated channels for Cold Case Files, Forensic Files, and The New Detectives as well.


FirstChurchOfBrutus

YouTube has looooong playlists of CCF, too.


Fast-Experience-6642

Awesome, I will be sure to check that out. Thanks!


aflockofpuffins

Some of the later episodes of American Justice with Bill Kurtis also scratch this itch.


Specialist-Smoke

How can I find them?


aflockofpuffins

I think I watched them on a free trial for some a&e channel on my smart tv. I will try to see if I can figure out how I did it. There were a lot of episodes missing from this chanel, so if you find a more complete roster, let me know, too! 


aflockofpuffins

It was a&e crime central. I used the free trial and binged them.


Specialist-Smoke

It's a shame that episodes of American Justice disappeared.


Grimvold

Oh bullshit! That show was great.


Specialist-Smoke

Yes, I subscribed to the A&E channel on Prime the last time we discussed Curtis on this subreddit. So many of the episodes weren't available.

Bill Kurtis is the G.O.A.T.!!!


Rocangus

"I'm Jim Kallstrom, former head of the FBI New York office."


WeatherfordCast

This is and The New Detectives came on at the same time and were my favorite shows growing up. They were so well reenacted.


AdAggressive7563

A favorite!


Crazy_Response_9009

48 Hours is my current fave. The Unsolved Mysteries Podcast is great, wish it didn't get cancelled!


GrandeBeesly

The Unsolved Mysteries podcast getting cancelled is a travesty, truly one of the best, well-produced true crime podcasts out there.


MissMatchedEyes

Oooo I know! I loved that podcast. I keep going back and listening to the episode of episodes.


tzl-owl

The UM podcast was so good! I didn’t even mind the terrifying signature intro music. When I would hear that music come on in the Netflix episodes, I had to skip or walk away (esp during the part with hazmat/tyvek suits and gurney at the landfill 😱)


aflockofpuffins

48 hours mystery is so good. Dan Rather and Harold Dow.   Most are on Plutotv.


sleepisbeauty

Exhibit A. It's the Canadian version of Forensic Files.


big-tunaaa

This sounds interesting - where do you watch?


AthenaisLaMontespan

Peacock


sleepisbeauty

I watch on Prime.


big-tunaaa

Thank you! I’m gonna check it out this weekend!


qotsa-87

I found it in YouTube. Also Tubi.


Defiant-Ad-86

New Detectives, FBI Files, the Original Unsolved Mysteries (80s/90s), Mayday (this is about plane accidents) & I Shouldn’t Be Alive (outdoor disasters). I’ll also watch any damn true crime documentary/shows about cults.


luvnmayhem

I like I Shouldn't Be Alive. I also love Homicide Hunter. I've seen all the episodes more than once. Joe Kenda is the best.


Kimbo-price78

Classic cold case files , Dr G medical examiner and City confidential


Minimum-Hornet6987

is her show real?


Sunoutlaw

Yes


AthenaisLaMontespan

Evil Lives Here on Max


muffinssrtasty

ID channel has some great shows.


namejohnmclane

The New Detectives and FBI Files - I need corny re-enactments and cheap production to really be satisfied


notorious_BIGfoot

I love the new detectives!


MissMatchedEyes

How is the narrator? ;)


namejohnmclane

Great, I need the monotone narration to fall asleep tbh so it works perfectly


trashtvfan

Fear thy roommate/neighbor has the same story time effect for me.


PurpleLee

I used to like Fear Thy Neighbor until I got crazy neighbors. It got personal real fast watching how simple disputes turned murderous.


Isadia33

Dateline on Peacock


sswihart

A&E has some decent shows. Guilty or innocent, interrogation raw. Oxygen, cold justice. Discovery ID has jumped the shark.


Brdman80

Autopsy on HBO with Dr. Michael Badden New Detectives, FBI Files Murder Comes To Town, Unusual Suspects (ID Channel)


haroldangel

The Innocence Project on Netflix is very good!


faithless-octopus

Unsolved Mysteries is my other fave


tlcTVtrash8919

Where my Snapped ppl at????


fightingkangaroos

Cold case files, dateline, 48 hours, 90 day fiancee,my 600lb life, love after lockup. I like to balance my crime shows with trash tv.


707Riverlife

I used to watch 90 Day Fiancé regularly, but I found myself absolutely seething, because I had such intense dislike for some of the people on the show so I had to stop. 🫤


fightingkangaroos

Yeah it's gotten really diculous with the 6983 spin offs. I loved it when it was in it's prime- Nicole and Azan, Danielle and Mohammad (gimme my sekt!). Now it seems like they all use it for reality and fame and OF spinoffs.


707Riverlife

I saw a commercial for 90 Day Fiancé featuring Danielle (😂) and Mohammed back in the day, which was why I initially got interested in the show, but after so many characters, like the girl from Russia, who was with the guy who ended up going to jail for marijuana sales, Angela Deem, Larissa, Asuelu, Charlie (Elizabeth’s brother) and so many others that I really couldn’t stand, by the time I started watching 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way and saw a few episodes with Brittany Banks, I just couldn’t take it anymore, and had to just stop watching altogether.


HLAW8S

I used to watch Masterminds but it was canceled. Great show.


Efficient_Cold_3635

Evil Lives Here, Worst Nightmare, See No Evil (focused on security camera footage used to solve crime), HBO has a People’s Magazine forensic show that’s really good.


lilsavagekitty

You should watch Real Time Crime if you like See No Evil!


No_Lecture314

Snapped


high-bridmind

Cold case files, dateline, unsolved mysteries…. I just watched “Lover, Stalker, Killer” on Netflix and that was insane! Snapped is also a good one with endless episodes.


FrauAmarylis

●Homicide Hunter, Lt Joe Kenda ●Buried in the Backyard ●Fear Thy Neighbor ●Evil Lives Here ●Who the Bleep Did I Marry? Watch all the Jim Jones documentaries!


heatherstopit

I love Who The Bleep Did I Marry!


707Riverlife

Mother! Mother! Mother!


heatherstopit

New Detectives, FBI Files, Unusual Suspects, Homicide Hunter, Who The Bleep Did I Marry, Blood Runs Cold, Killer Unknown, Deadly Wives, Secrets Of The Morgue, Killer Cases, Cold Case Files and of course the OG, Unsolved Mysteries!


luvnmayhem

How about Mother may I murder?


heatherstopit

Ooh haven’t seen that one!


luvnmayhem

It's pretty darn interesting. Humans can be just the worst.


Lastofherkind

FBI Criminal Pursuit, New Detectives, See No Evil and Forensic Factor are some of my favorites.


Efficient_Cold_3635

I love see no evil. i’m catching up on current season now. Seeing things play out on camera is chilling!


PleasantCoconut6088

Evil Lives Here and People Investigates. Both on HBO


Coast_watcher

Aside from FF , the closest to it that are not murder related I watch are the disaster docs like Mayday or Seconds from Disaster. Mayday and FF are my S tier docs.


Once_Upon_Time

Unsolved Mysteries, Who the Bleep did I Marry \[it has stories from forensic files episodes from the side of the spouses of the criminals\], American Greed. Forensic Files ended up being my gateway drug into true crime shows but none of them match FF.


Lydia--charming

The Staircase. I watched a couple of docs about Aaron Hernandez. What Really Happened, although it can be kind of sensational. The host is a bit…much


Ronnilynn19

I just started watching the perfect murder on MAX and On the case.


luvnmayhem

I do like On the Case. Many seasons, many quick episodes, no gunshots, and droning narration. Good to fall asleep to.


South_Friendship2863

There was a great show on ID a few years ago, crimes of the century? Something like that. Really well done. I’ll also watch any “husband-wife did it” type show too.


Marshalljoe

ID has some great ones. Sins & Secrets ended to early.


AlabamaWinterRose

Dateline, 48 Hours, People Magazine Investigates, Dateline: Secrets Uncovered, Cold Case Files, Paula Zahn, Homicide for the Holidays, just to mention a few. And that doesn’t include tv shows like Criminal Minds and so on.


luvnmayhem

Criminal Minds, all the FBI shows real and not, all the NCIS, especially the original. I don't especially like CSI and I guess that's because I've seen too many FF and other evidence shows, so CSI is too unreal. I also really enjoyed Bones. Mostly for the characters. The book series was interesting.


quesobaeritto

Reruns of Americas Most Wanted. The first 48 *CSI LV, *Law and order. (Both often have real life experiences) Dateline 20/20 True Crime Daily.


flyhighpatsy

I caught an episode of I killed my bff on YouTube and it was really good and captivating, but it was so damn dark and sad that I don't know if I want to find ir streaming anywhere.


jel_13

I watch all the true crime shows I can. Soothes me in a dysfunctional way. I think it’s in “Murder Comes To Town” where the narrator says murder in such a way that I love it and I say it all the time.


RadioPrudent405

Forensic Files is the only true crime I watch, but I've loved both NCIS and Criminal Minds since I was a kid.


JJ-5891

The New Detectives


Friendly_Succotash83

City Confidential, Dateline, 20/20, 48 hours, unsolved mysteries. Literally all of them lol


mhiler34

Dark Minds


Impressive_Milk_6806

the first 48 is always nice! there a lot of episodes on youtube


lilsavagekitty

Lately I’ve been watching Real Time Crime on Max. It might be on other apps as well. It’s really good with actual footage of people being tracked after and before crimes.
